A review of Terrence Malick's "The New World," now on Criterion Blu-ray and DVD.
You've gotta hand it to "Terminal Velocity:" This movie may be dumb as a box of shredded wheat, but it has the damnedest action sequence I've seen since Arnold Schwarzenegger blasted the bad guy with the missile in "True Lies." Nastassja Kinski is locked in the trunk of a red Cadillac, which is taken aboard a cargo plane. Charlie Sheen pursues in another plane, walks on its wing, hauls himself aboard the cargo plane, and then finds himself, Kinski and the Cadillac all falling through the air - with a villain on the hood shooting at him. This is an assignment for Houdini.
Sheen's behavior in this and other scenes is so close to the self-parody of his work in the "Hot Shots!" movies that he almost seems to be telling us something - such as, that he takes the movie with less than perfect seriousness. No wonder. It's based on such a goofy premise that with just a nudge here and a pun there it could easily have become "Hot Shots Part Cinq" and taken advantage of the franchise. It's not so much that Sheen can keep a straight face in any situation, as that he always seems to be testing himself with the situations he gets himself into.
In "Terminal Velocity" he plays a skydiving instructor so reckless he's had 12 safety violations in the last month. He's the kind of guy who paints "Kiss This" on his derriere and paraglides into downtown Phoenix. One day a beautiful blonde (Kinski) turns up at his skydiving school and wants an instant lesson. That sets off a long chain of events involving mistaken identities, stolen gold, three-legged dogs, and the KGB (or, as Sheen calls it, "the KG used-to-B"). By the end of the movie, needless to say, nothing less than the survival of the free world is at stake.
I dare not reveal too much of the plot, although it's so absurd that even Kinski giggles while explaining its finer points.
The purpose of the movie is essentially to provide a platform for stunts and special effects so weird that we watch goggle-eyed, wondering how in God's name they're gonna get out of each predicament. Kinski is apparently doomed in so many different situations in the movie that it becomes a running gag.
There are times when Deran Sarafian, the director, seems so enthralled by movie formulas that he uses them even in the face of common sense. Sheen, for example, is always getting jumped from behind. Fine; except how do you explain a late scene where he is jumped from behind by a guy who has no reason to do so, and starts talking to him moments later? It's like they were using a computer scriptwriting program that inserted "JUMPED FROM BEHIND" before every dialogue scene.
Sheen seems aware of the movie's comic possibilities, and must surely have had a smile on his face when he designed his character's haircut, which seems inspired by the pompadour of the hero of a little-seen but long-remembered movie named "Johnny Suede." Kinski has a hair motif, too - it's always in her eyes - but she brings a bright, bemused air to her character, and has fun juggling various accents.
Is there a reason to see this movie? I am reminded of categories in the Michelin travel guides. "Terminal Velocity" does not deserve a Journey or even a Detour, but it is indeed a Sight.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

Arno must stop Elise's beheading in this Assassin's Creed Unity video
A new CGI trailer for Assassin's Creed Unity has been released featuring the game's protagonist Arno "racing against time" through the streets of Paris to save young noblewoman Elise. She is central to the game's plot, per Ubisoft.
Elise is a "independent young noblewoman determined to secure her place in the Templar dynasty," says her brief bio.
The firm also announced that a new novel penned by Oliver Bowden based on Assassin's Creed Unity will be released by Penguin Random House. It builds on Bowden's past Assassin's novels and is told from Elise's perspective.
A figurine dubbed "Elise: The Fiery Templar" will also be made available as part of the Ubicollectibles set. It can also be assembled into a diorama with the "Arno: The Fearless Assassin" figurine.
Additional digital content for Assassin's Creed Unity is also included with the purchase of this collectible.
Assassin's Creed Unity will be released worldwide on October 28. The Assassin's Creed Unity novel will be available in November.
"Elise: The Fiery Templar" figurine will be released on October 14.

- "The world is so full of surprises. Let it surprise you."
- ―Max to Eleanor Guthrie[src]
Max is a seductive, cunning, and cool-headed prostitute in the brothel on Nassau. In Eleanor Guthrie, she's found a kindred spirit, a lover, maybe even a savior, but when her aspirations and Eleanor's begin to conflict, their relationship, and Max's well-being, take a dark turn for the worse.
Background Edit
Max was born into slavery, possibly somewhere in Haiti since she speaks French creole. She was the child of a slave-woman and the slave-owner. As a child, she would watch while the slave-owner's trueborn daughter ate and read and danced in the safety of the big house. Max has always wanted that life for herself. At the start of the series she is working as one of the many prostitutes in Noonan's brothel.
Season One Edit
One day, Max and a number of other girls are hired as a welcoming gift for John Silver. Despite several beautiful women in bed with him, Silver's eyes keep drifting to the page he took from the Ship's cook. After the other women leave, Max confronts Silver and asks him its importance. She then threatens to turn him in to his Captain, unless he cuts her in on the profits. Silver reluctantly agrees.
Later that night, Max helps Silver sneak aboard the Walrus to discover the meaning of the page. In Flint's cabin, he finds the book the page was torn from; a ledger owned by his previous Captain. Silver realizes that it's the schedule of the L'urca de Lima.
Returning to the brothel, Max finds her lover Eleanor Guthrie, bruised and shaken from a confrontation with her former lover Charles Vane. Max takes Eleanor to her room to clean her up and comfort her, before the two have sex.
Later, Max approaches Jack Rackham and offers to sell him the Urca schedule. The two set up a meeting for the purchase. However, the meeting is abruptly broken up by Vane, who accuses Max was lying. He eventually relents, though not before vowing to kill her should the deal go south.
As soon as they leave, Max is confronted by Hal Gates and Billy Bones with Eleanor, who have figured out that she is working as a middle man for Silver. Much to the surprise and pain of Max, Eleanor insists that she must give up the page. After confessing to the men the plan to sell the schedule, Max pleads with Eleanor to leave the island with her and start a new life. Eleanor turns her down, but offers Max protection from Vane. Later, feeling betrayed by Eleanor, Max sneaks out of the brothel, intent on leaving the island. However, she is caught and imprisoned by Vane and his men.
Max is beaten and raped by Vane's men. After some time, Vane asks her why she decided to leave Eleanor's protection. Max tells him that he of all people must understand the pain of losing Eleanor's affection. Vane relents and tells Rackham to sneak her off the island after dark.
Despite Rackham's attempt to get her away, he is caught by several of the Ranger's crew led by Hamund, who refuse to give her up. They proceed to assault her right in the streets. Her screams attract a crowd of spectators, and eventually Eleanor. Enraged, Eleanor beats the men off Max and announces that none of them will ever do business on the island again, unless they abandon Vane and join Flint's crew. Max, still hurt from Eleanor's rejection and feeling guilt for losing Vane his crew, offers to remain Vane's captive until her debt is paid off.
While "paying off" her debt, she is routinely abused by the Ranger's crew. She tries to convince them that they would get more pleasure from her if they treated her gently, but Hamund continues to mistreat her. Hamund's abuse of Max especially distressed Anne Bonny. Bonny eventually reluctantly reaches out to Eleanor, and together they lead Hamund and the others into an ambush where they kill them all. Afterwards, Max is allowed free and returns to her room in the brothel.
Rackham is now running the brothel, but struggling to stop the girls robbing him blind. Max begins to assert some authority with the other girls, making them pay Rackham the full amount for their tricks. Rackham is impressed and fires Mrs. Mapleton, with Max becoming the new Madam of the brothel.
Season Two Edit
With Max now the Madam of the brothel, she begins selling leads from the other girls to pirate captains. Bonny becomes angry with her when this is discovered. However, Rackham comes up with a plan to get his own ship and a crew, and use the leads that Max receives to enrich the three of them with equal profit of the spoils. But, Rackham's attempts to raise a crew end in abject failure, due to his reputation.
That continues until Max finds out information on Ned Low's hostage for Charles Vane, in exhange for him forgiving Rackham and Bonny so that they may sail again. Meanwhile, a tense three-way sexual relationship has developed between Max, Bonny and Rackham.
Max continues to demonstrate her shrewdness when she helps manipulate an influential pirate named Featherstone to join Rackham, along with 28 other men and their ship. However, the new crew will not accept both Max and Bonny receiving such a significant share of any future profits. When Rackham tells Bonny she must stay ashore for awhile, Bonny storms off.
While Rackham is at sea, Bonny kills a sailor called Logan, as well as Charlotte, a prostitute, in the brothel, in a foolish attempt to gain information on the Urca gold. Max promises to stand in between Bonny and the consequences of her actions, and will protect her. However, Bonny eventually decides to leave Nassau.
In the brothel, Silver comes to Max for help in his latest scheme. Silver admits to Max that when the two scouts arrived on the beach, they told him that the Urca gold was actually still there and that what had occurred was that the Spanish sailors on the beach had all become ill and died, leaving the gold virtually defenseless. He then asks Max if she knows of a crew who would be willing to go there and collect the gold.
Rackham and his crew return to Nassau. Rackham is clearly distraught over Bonny's departure, but immediately begin preparations to retrieve the gold.
After Richard Guthrie funeral, Max brings bread and fruit from the girls at Rackham's brothel to Eleanor. Eleanor explains to Max there is now a war between her and Charles Vane, concerning the future of the island, and everyone must now choose sides. Max exits feeling that Eleanor is up to something and wishes Rackham to launch his ship as soon as possible. This turns out to be true when men try to assassinate Rackham and his quartermaster Featherstone. However, Bonny reappears and saves them, killing both men. Taking refuge in the brothel, Max insists that they must leave immediately.
When news of Eleanor Guthrie's attest reaches Nassau, Max is visibly upset, but quickly her thoughts turn to the future of the island. Max asks Idelle to find out how much money the brothel and the girls have in reserve, and goes to offer to buy the interest in Eleanor's tavern.
A short time later, Max is summoned to the beach from the tavern; presumably her offer was accepted. On the beach, Rackham and Bonny looking a bit beat up, but alive. Rackham tells her that the Spanish men on the beach put up an admirable fight, but that they won the day. Rackham's crew also had to salvage the Walrus in order to carry all the gold back to Nassau. Rackham tells Max he wants to show her something "shiny" and takes her into the hold of one of the ships, revealing the long desired Urca gold. Max smiles in the light of the glittering gold.
Season Three Edit
In the months since the end of Season 2, Max has established herself as Eleanor's replacement as the merchant queen. The Urca gold has been split between Max, Flint, Rackham, Vane, and their crews. However, fearing that the Spanish or English will respond overwhelmingly to the theft of the gold, Max tries to persuade Rackham and Bonny to exchange some of the gold for pearls, so it is easier to transport should they need to abandon Nassau. When Blackbeard arrives on the island, and proves himself a volcano building towards its inevitable eruption, Rackham agrees to Max's plan - as long as it's done quietly.
Soon, news reaches Nassau of the imminent arrival of Woodes Rogers and a fleet, intent of re-establishing English governance. The pirates fight to save Nassau proves short-lived. Rogers offers the pirates all pardons and most accept, with Blackbeard, Vane, Rackham, and Bonny fleeing Nassau. Max elects to stay and build a life for herself under English governance, ending her relationship with Bonny.
Rogers quickly starts to form a governing council, composed of leading merchants from Nassau and the Governor's men, although on Eleanor's advice, Max is not selected. However, Max has made herself a power in her world the hard way, and will risk all to keep her place at the top. She approaches Governor Rogers, and enticed him with her share of the Spanish gold in return for a place on the governing council.
Governor Rogers has no time to celebrate his newfound wealth. He learns that the Spanish are insisting that ALL of the Urca gold must be returned, including Rackham and Bonny's shares. Max proves that she has chosen to side with Rodgers and Eleanor, when she tries to persuade Bonny to return the cache, after Rackham is arrested. However, Max is soon forced to make an awful and lonely compromise to remain in power; she must betray Bonny and allow Rackham to be handed over to the Spanish.
Max employs the hated Mrs. Mapleton as the new madam in the whorehouse. However, this proves a mistake, when it turns Max's friend Idelle against her. Idelle becomes a spy for the pirate resistance led by Flint. Idelle helps them plot an ambush on Roger's convoy transporting Rackham and the pearls to the Spanish.
Over time, Max and Eleanor have grown closer to each other again. When Charles Vane is arrested, Max tries to warn Eleanor of the dangerous path she is following. However, Eleanor refuses to listen, and fast-tracks Vane's trial and conviction for piracy. Max watches on with increasing concern for the stability of Nassau, as Vane is shuttled into the town square, and hanged before a troubled crowd of former pirates. The pirate rebellion begins with the killing of Captain Throckmorton, and the promise of future retribution from a new boogieman for the governing powers to fear, Long John Silver. Max seeks to let the drama play out and once again land on the winning side.
Max begins the series as a seductive and cunning prostitute with a knack for manipulating people, who dreams of a better life for herself through her powerful lover Eleanor. However, when Max's aspirations and hers conflict, Eleanor betrays her. Their relationship and Max's well-being, take a dark turn for the worse. After, Bonny saves her from sexual enslavement to Vane's crew, Max becomes a more assertive, first becoming the wily madam of the brothel, and later, the owner of Eleanor's tavern and a power in her world.
Max is very cool-headed, manipulating events to make sure she wins out overall, such as convincing Vane to forgive Rackham, and converting the gold to pearls before the English invasion. She can be very loyal to her friends, protecting Bonny from the consequences of her actions, and running things without creating enemies, unlike Eleanor. However, she eventually learns that to remain in power in Nassau, requires awful and lonely compromises. Max often plays both sides, in bed and in business, allowing the drama between Flint and Rogers to play out, and once again land on the winning side.
Trivia Edit
- In the original novel, it's mentioned that Silver is married to "a woman of colour", which has led some to believe Silver and Max will eventually get together. (The "women of colour" is likely to be Madi.)
Memorable QuotesEdit
"When the sea grows rough, you come to Max, Max is your harbour."
-Max to Eleanor.[1]
"When a man is being fucked he wants to know whose cock was in him."
-Max to Silver.[2]

I just wanted to thank you for your fast service in shipping my order, it was here within two days. I have also found that your prices are lower than most of the craft stores in and around my town, which I am also thankful for. I am disabled and money is short--every penny counts. So far you have had anything I've needed and shopping online is much better than driving around from store to store, looking for a parking place and waiting in line to fight the traffic back home. Thanks!!!

Girlfighting: Betrayal and Rejection among Girls / Edition 1by Lyn Mikel Brown
View All Available Formats & Editions
Pub. Date: 03/01/2005
Publisher: New York University Press
For some time, reality TV, talk shows, soap-operas, and sitcoms have turned their spotlights on women and girls who thrive on competition and nastiness. Few fairytales lack the evil stepmother, wicked witch, or jealous sister. Even cartoons feature mean and sassy girls who only become sweet and innocent when adults appear. And recently, popular books and magazines
For some time, reality TV, talk shows, soap-operas, and sitcoms have turned their spotlights on women and girls who thrive on competition and nastiness. Few fairytales lack the evil stepmother, wicked witch, or jealous sister. Even cartoons feature mean and sassy girls who only become sweet and innocent when adults appear. And recently, popular books and magazines have turned their gaze away from ways of positively influencing girls' independence and self-esteem and towards the topic of girls' meanness to other girls. What does this say about the way our culture views girlhood? How much do these portrayals affect the way girls view themselves?
In Girlfighting, psychologist and educator Lyn Mikel Brown scrutinizes the way our culture nurtures and reinforces this sort of meanness in girls. She argues that the old adage "girls will be girls"—gossipy, competitive, cliquish, backstabbing— and the idea that fighting is part of a developmental stage or a rite-of-passage, are not acceptable explanations. Instead, she asserts, girls are discouraged from expressing strong feelings and are pressured to fulfill unrealistic expectations, to be popular, and struggle to find their way in a society that still reinforces gender stereotypes and places greater value on boys. Under such pressure, in their frustration and anger, girls (often unconsciously) find it less risky to take out their fears and anxieties on other girls instead of challenging the ways boys treat them, the way the media represents them, or the way the culture at large supports sexist practices.
Girlfighting traces the changes in girls' thoughts, actions and feelings from childhood into young adulthood, providing the developmental understanding and theoretical explanation often lacking in other conversations. Through interviews with over 400 girls of diverse racial, economic, and geographic backgrounds, Brown chronicles the labyrinthine journey girls take from direct and outspoken children who like and trust other girls, to distrusting and competitive young women. She argues that this familiar pathway can and should be interrupted and provides ways to move beyond girlfighting to build girl allies and to support coalitions among girls.
By allowing the voices of girls to be heard, Brown demonstrates the complex and often contradictory realities girls face, helping us to better understand and critique the socializing forces in their lives and challenging us to rethink the messages we send them.

Incredible Lasagna W/ Bolognese Sauce
Total Time
Prep 45 mins
Cook 1 hr
I got this recipe from our local paper. Others say it's Emeril's recipe, but it didn't say so in the paper. Either way, it's not mine, but I tried it and it rocked. It isn't like the lasagna you normally make, as it doesn't have Ricotta or Mozzerella. But trust it, it's different and it's awesome. It actually tastes more authentic than the cheesy style lasagna. Also, original recipe called for Spinach Pasta (homemade), but I substited Barilla brand (ready to bake) shells. If you don't know how to make a bechamel, I'll post a recipe and attempt to link it.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 29.58 ml butter
- 680.38 g flat lasagna noodles
- 1892.72 ml bolognese sauce
- 946.36 ml bechamel sauce
- 473.18 ml parmigiano-reggiano cheese
- Grease a ceramic 9 x 13 casserole dish with butter and set aside (this is so that the noodles don't stick to the bottom, and it works better than putting sauce down, and tastes great, too).
- Boil lasagna shells until al dente (look at directions on package), unless you're using the ready to bake type.
- Arrange pasta into single layer in pan, cutting and patching to fit as needed.
- Carefully top with a thin layer of bolognese (about 1 1/2 cups). Sprinkle liberally with parmiggiano cheese.
- Arrange another layer of pasta on top, covering with bechamel (about 1 1/3 cup) and sprinkle again with parmiggiano cheese.
- Repeat layers until you have at least 3 layers of bolognese and bechamel, then finish with another cup of the reserved bolognese, and finally top with parmigianno.
- Bake at 350 degrees until hot and bubbly, about 50 minutes.
- Let rest about 15 minutes before serving.
- Serve with any remaining bolognese on the side.
Most Helpful
This was very good! I had some leftover homemade bolognese sauce so quickly made some homemade bechamel sauce, threw it all together and had an excellent lasagne al forno. I did not pre-boil my pasta and it turned out fine. Thanks for sharing!
'bolognese sauce' 'bechamel sauce' 5 stars? No.
I chose this recipe as it didn't contain ricotta cheese, which I'm not always partial to. The recipe steps were very straightforward, and the lasagna was superb! I increased the bechamel sauce to 8 cups to make it extra creamy. Also, I skipped the step of pre-boiling the lasagna shells by adding a little water to the bolognese sauce before baking. I covered the pan, and increased the baking time to 1 1/2 hours to ensure the lasagna shells would be al dente. Then I uncovered the pan, and baked for an additional 15 minutes to lightly brown it. The finished result was delicious, and it will definitely be on the menu again! Thanks for posting, Mole!

VIDEO: Highlights from Wednesday's games
Warriors want to finish with No. 1 overall seed | Prognosis grim for Jazz's Sloan | Hinkie era ends in Philly | Bryant has no specific plans for final game | Ewing wants Knicks' gig; 'Melo wants say on next coach
No. 1: Finishing with No. 1 overall seed remains Warriors' goal — Tonight's showdown with the San Antonio Spurs (10:30 ET, TNT) gives the Golden State Warriors a shot at reaching 70 wins. It's also, perhaps, Step 1 in a four-game plan to reach an NBA-record 73 wins. But after yesterday's practice, both coach Steve Kerr and center Andrew Bogut doubled-down on the notion that finishing the season strong — and with the NBA's top overall seed — remains the goal. Rusty Simmons of the San Francisco Chronicle has more:
Yep, the Warriors spent Wednesday recalibrating their focus from chasing NBA history to merely completing a historic regular season by clinching the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference.
"Every day, it's the same questions," said Bogut, who was one of the few who stayed after Kerr told the players they could leave the practice facility following a video session. "Every day, it's the same thing on TV. Every day, it's the same article. Every day, it's a new former player who has a comment. It's just something you've got to deal with, but it's no excuse.
"We're going for the record, but if we don't get it, it's not the end of the world."
The Warriors' magic number for the top seed in the West and home-court advantage throughout the playoffs is two, meaning they would clinch it with a victory over the Spurs on Thursday.
"We're still trying to get the No. 1 seed," Kerr said. "… Let's do that, and then worry about everything else later. … We'll just try to win tomorrow and then figure out what's next."
They haven't played consistently well in a month and haven't played a full game of top-notch defense in at least as long. They lost for the first time at home in 55 regular-season games Friday and dropped another one Tuesday.
"I'm actually surprised this didn't happen a while back," Kerr said. "There's a reason that this record has been standing for 20 years. It's a hard thing to do. …
"It's a miracle that we've gone this far without sort of hitting a bump in the road. … It's just surprising for people out there — and maybe even our own guys — because this season has come almost too easily for us."
The Warriors finish the regular season with a home game against Memphis on Wednesday. In between the games at Oracle Arena, they'll have their first consecutive days off in almost six weeks following a back-to-back set in Memphis and San Antonio.
That should be enough to recapture the Warriors' focus.
"Once you lose your focus, that's when bad defense happens. That's when turnovers happen. That's when fouling happens," forward Draymond Green said. "… I wouldn't say we're necessarily caught up in the hype, but I think we've gotten to the point where … we're like, 'All right, we're kind of ready for the regular season to end.'
"When you're talking about 82 games, you get bored of that after a while."

PROPOSALS to build a new "free" school in the region have been rejected by planners.
An application to build a new school together with 350 new homes at Ingleby Barwick, near Stockton, were rejected by ten votes to one at Stockton Borough Council's planning committee earlier today, Tuesday, February 5.
It is expected the developers will appeal the decision.
Loading article content
The plan was to build a 750-place school called Ingleby Manor Free School along with the homes. However Stockton's planning officers recommended refusal arguing the buildings on land near Low Maltby Farm, Low Lane would have been an "unjustified incursion" into the Bassleton Beck valley green wedge land.
The council received 71 objections from people worried about loss of open space and traffic problems. It was also argued many of the new places would be used up by families of people moving into the new homes. The plan received 61 letters of support.
Conservative Stockton South MP James Wharton has campaigned for a new free school for Ingleby Barwick along with a number of parents in the community. Free schools are state schools out of local authority control.
Mr Wharton said: "This is incredibly disappointing. Stockton Council has turned down a multi million pound new secondary school and improvements in infrastructure. I have campaigned for years to get a new school for Ingleby Barwick and to have it turned away when we are so close is a bitter pill to swallow.
"This will not be the end of the road for the campaign to get our new school, given the weakness of Stockton's case I expect the applicants to appeal and I would be surprised if they were not successful."

Diff File for database.sql 3_2.
The "Normal Office Visit" entry in openemr_postcalendar_categories tables fails to insert in the sql/dtabase.sql file that comes with the 3.2 download.
In addition, several warnings are thrown due to default values being assigned to text fields that are ineligible to have defaults. Removing the "default ' '" syntax suppresses the warnings while resulting in the same table structure ( since the defaults weren't being created anyway ).
Recommend that the owners of those tables consider removing the "not null' verbiage from those columns as well if the inability to default is a problem.

AT SOME POINT he had to join the party. It was implausible, the thought that the Phillies could win the last game of the 2010 season without the help of Jimmy Rollins.
And yet he looked so awful on the right side of the plate, so feeble on the left side of the plate this postseason, that Giants manager Bruce Bochy's solution to escape a seventh-inning jam last night was to somehow get to Rollins' place in the order.
Rollins had mustered just two hits in the playoffs, one a little gift that dropped between three Giants infielders to begin the fourth inning last night. In the press box, probably in the stands, in the living rooms and bars across the Delaware Valley, too, there was an uneasy argument even that pinch-hitting for the Phillies' franchise shortstop was the sharpest course of action. Especially when Bochy intentionally walked hitless Jayson Werth to load the bases, then replaced lefthander Jeremy Affeldt with righthanded Santiago Casilla, forcing Rollins to bat lefthanded.

Leaked photos: Is this the iPad mini?
- From: IGN
- September 19, 2012
Alleged photos of Apple's 7-inch tablet surface on Chinese and French sites. Looks like - you guessed it - a slightly shrunken iPad.
Like it or not, Apple is pretty much definitely building a 7-inch tablet, speculatively termed the "iPad mini" by tech bloggers. (In fairness, that sounds better than iPod Touch MAXX.) While it could be weeks or months before we know for sure whether or not the name stuck, looking at recently leaked pictures at the French site NoWhereElse and the Chinese site Bolopad, it certainly fits. The "iPad mini" looks almost exactly like Apple's latest iPad, only smaller.

Product Description
"Kate Atkinson's new novel is a box of delights. Ingenious in construction, indefatigably entertaining, it grips the reader's imagination on the first page and never lets go. If you wish to be moved and astonished, read it. And if you want to give a dazzling present, buy it for your friends." (Hilary Mantel)
"There aren't enough breathless adjectives to describe Life After Life: Dazzling, witty, moving, joyful, mournful, profound. Wildly inventive, deeply felt. Hilarious. Humane.
Simply put: it's ONE OF THE BEST NOVELS I'VE READ THIS CENTURY." (Gillian Flynn,no1 New York Times author of Gone Girl, and Sharp Objects)
"Truly brilliant...Think of Audrey Niffenegger's The TimeTraveler's Wife or David Nicholl's One Day...[or] Martin Amis's Times Arrow, his rewinding of the Holocaust that was shortlisted for the Booker. Life After Life should have the popular success of the former and deserves to win prizes, too. It has that kind of thrill to it, of an already much-loved novelist taking a leap, and breaking through to the next level...This is a rare book that you want, Ursula-like, to start again the minute you have finished." (Helen Rumbelow The Times)
"What makes Atkinson an exceptional writer – and this is her most ambitious and most gripping work to date – is that she does so with an emotional delicacy and understanding that transcend experiment or playfulness. Life After Life gives us a heroine whose fictional underpinning is permanently exposed, whose artificial status is never in doubt; and yet one who feels painfully, horribly real to us." (Alex Clark Guardian)
"Merging family saga with a fluid sense of time and an extraordinarily vivid sense of history at its most human level. A dizzying and dazzling tour de force." (Amber Pearson Daily Mail)
Book Description
WINNER OF THE 2013 COSTA NOVEL AWARD: the acclaimed number one bestselling novel about a woman who lives her life over and over again through the most turbulent events of the 20th century, including the London Blitz.See all Product Description

Ursula keeps being born, in 1910, living, dying and being born again within the same family but her decisions and reactions to events change, sometime nudged by a sense that something must be avoided at all costs, and her life keeps going off in different directions as she lives through the turbulent events of the first half of the 20th century. Sometimes you desperately want her to die so that a particular cycle will end and in others you want her to fight through and succeed.
Atkinson crafts Ursula's repeated lives beautifully and you are with her, rooting for her, in every one. But it is not just Ursula we get to know through her successive lives but also her family, friends, brief acquaintances and villains. We see not only the different directions Ursula takes but the impact of life and events on the people around her. Even the characters who make brief appearances are rich with detail and the main characters continue to grow through Ursula's lives along with our greater intimacy with Ursula herself. How many times can we read of a character being born? Well the answer is many times and still never be tired of it.Read more ›
So, this is a story (almost a saga) of a family the Todds, and particularly of Ursula Todd, a girl born during the storm in February 1910, who lives through the twentieth century witnessing some of the important events of our history. It's a tale of life, loss and rebirth. Ursula (who is very lovable, in fact, all her family are adorable, except perhaps for one member) meets her death at a number of times during the book through accidents, sickness and sometimes through violent death. Sometimes death comes sooner than I hoped, but at all times you can almost sense the presence of Grim Reaper somewhere close to the Todds family (and how unlucky can Ursula be if the death is waiting for her behind almost every corner!). But each time, when the death claims Ursula, the story rewinds straight to the beginning, but is told from a slightly different angle (the repetitions are limited). Kate Atkinson works the minutiae and details differently each time, adding more colours to the narrative, sometimes just a detail or two, sometimes the whole "beginning" is told differently. For me it all was entirely absorbing. And what a craftsmanship!
I must admit, I felt a little bit tired towards the end with the way the story progressed, but it did not spoil my impression of "Life After Life". I think it one of the best books I read this year, profound, inventive and compelling, beautifully written by a talented author.
I admit I am a big fan of Kate Atkinson's writing, having read most of her previous novels, with a particular fondness for the Jackson Brodie stories, my favourite probably being `When Will There Be Good News?'. I was therefore so excited to hear about a new novel coming from her and filled with great anticipation upon starting to read.
Life After Life didn't disappoint me; I think this is a very special book in many ways. It is imbued with the sparkling prose and the dark humour that is so often evident in Kate Atkinson's works. But this book features something rather clever and wonderful in terms of the structure and storyline.
The main character, Ursula Todd is born in 1910, during a heavy snowstorm, but sadly dies immediately, there's no time for the doctor to reach her. Then we read that Ursula Todd is born in 1910 during a heavy snowstorm, and lives. She has another chance, another start at life, and this pattern, this unique quality, stays with her as she lives, and lives again, and changes the direction of her life, having chance after chance to get it just right. What a premise!
We accompany Ursula as she lives through many of the major events of the twentieth century, with her personal highs and lows recounted, then changed, as she has another chance at her life, and then another. She takes a different route, and a different course is set. Kate Atkinson writes of the personal experiences of one woman in a way that makes for compelling reading. I loved Ursula's family and thought they were also all vividly brought to life, in particular her mother Sylvie.Read more ›
